Hane (羽, Feather) is the ninth single by Koshi Inaba, set for release on January 13, 2016. The single was revealed on November 23, 2015 during an event for the HMV-sponsored radio show Happy Hour! on InterFM897. Fans were invited to observe as Koshi participated in a live interview where the title song for the single was first heard by the public. The song fuses his signature rock sound with a Eurobeat foundation for a song unlike any of his past work. At the event, it was revealed that the song would begin serving as the theme to the popular anime series Detective Conan beginning January 9.
The existence of the single came following the announcement of new solo tour Koshi Inaba LIVE 2016 ~enIII~ for early 2016. Plans of a solo project came to light even earlier, however, when it was revealed that Koshi would be providing the theme song to the latest Ryu Ga Gotoku video game Ryu Ga Gotoku Kiwami, a remake of the first game in the series for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.
Track listing

- Of the song, Koshi was quoted as saying: "I painted the main character of the song as a person who believes in tomorrow and tries to do something with his life, although he regrets his past and is in fear of loss amidst the two views on passing time: flowing time and accumulating time. I'm looking forward to hearing it in the drama."
